A hell of a double-bill over at Craem Club in Pudong. Shanghai post punk outfit Solid Liquid ain't your average post punk band - a psych-laced trip down the rabbit hole that plays out like a Chinese opera gone off the rails, it's amazing how many musical intricacies they're able to pack in - turning each track into a Jenja tower of sharp guitar lines, hypnotic backing vocals, punchy bass grooves and almost indifferent musings sung via wailings. Meanwhile, Shanghai instrumental rock outfit An Corporation - known for their grandiose, exploratory, and almost apocalyptic sound - makes post-rock on a grand scale. Hefty and potent experimental instrumental rock that’s not afraid to infuse grandiose sound with an apocalyptic edge.
